I see this failure in analysis all the time.
When people want to change the behavior of others, they find some policy and incentive that would encourage the change they desire, but never stop to ask how else people might react to that change in incentives.
Anyone ever come across any catchy name or formulation for this particular failure mode?
Cobra effect (see the Wikipedia page I linked before). Law of unintended consequences. (Perhaps the former is a little too narrow and the latter a little too broad.)
